Title: 1.34B02 strange NTP behaviour: what is the IP?
Post by: Ronneske on April 12, 2010, 11:28:46 AM

Noticed some strange behaviour retrieving time settings.
Seems the IP number returned for same server is dual.

[INFO]   Mon Apr 12 20:23:59 2010   Time synchronized
[INFO]   Sun Apr 11 20:26:17 2010   Requesting time from 207.232.83.70
[INFO]   Sun Apr 11 20:26:17 2010   Time server ntp1.dlink.com is at IP address 207.232.83.70
[INFO]   Sun Apr 11 20:26:17 2010   Requesting time from 61.67.210.241
[INFO]   Sun Apr 11 20:26:17 2010   Time server ntp1.dlink.com is at IP address 61.67.210.241

Anybody else sees this happening in 1.34B02??

Saw same thing happening last night after upgrading. But then the sequence of ip was just other way round.

Nothing to worry about:
dig ntp1.dlink.com

Basically you can say there're two hosts running dlink ntp server
